on Citysearch Jan 12, 2010I've been shopping there for years and have yet to have a bad experience. The staff is knowledgeable and will lead you to an item or just let you browse if you wish. I've found parts there that were simply not available... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 13, 2009I used to shop here many years ago, and started again recently. My experience has been different than most of the reviews here. I have found both of the employees (older man & woman) to be helpful & courteous. They... (more)

on Citysearch Oct 17, 2009Do not go there to buy anything, because they will make you feel like you don't know anything, and they make themselves as they are the most experts on all topics electronic. They are the rudiest people on the face of... (more)

on Citysearch Oct 09, 2009Five days after I purchased $23 worth of items, I went a different way on my project and went back to return the items. When I got to the store, I was told "it says 'no refunds or exchanges' on the receipt ". Normally that... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 03, 2009I have been shopping with Electronic Connection for 2 years off and on now. When I first started shopping there the lady was moody and the guy was OK for the most part (by compairision). The longer I've been shopping the... (more)

on Citysearch Feb 12, 2009Yes, the people who own the store can be short sometimes. But I have found that if I am nice to them, they are nice to me. I have met many people in all businesses that were much worse than these people. Also, some customers... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 23, 2008What I dont get is this rating web site...... They are WAY too biased and skewed to keep the ratings of a business in the positive when for example Electronic Connection in Westland Michigan should be in the negative.... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 01, 2008Rather than the free press/news writing about their "backyard", I think they should investigate how lousy they run their electronics store. Really, this couple is tremendously rude, especially HER... What a... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 29, 2008I have to say that I agree with the MAJORITY of the rest. To me it doesnt matter what they carry, rather how they treat people. The WORD needs to get out regarding their inabililty to offer courteous assistance. They... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 12, 2008Dont go there, im still scared of the lady, the guy is cool. I went in for a resistor and hand full of parts needed for my project and she almost made me quit school. Why is she like this? No one may ever know...My heart goes... (more)

on Citysearch Feb 22, 2008Detroit area electronics parts suppliers are sparse - other than RS Electronics. (this is not exactly Silicon Valley!!) So, the alternative is Electronic Connection in Westland - here are my comments!! If you... (more)

on Citysearch Sep 04, 2007They are the only game in town. If there were other stores in the area I would shop there even if the prices were higher. I shop there only when necessary. The people there do have an attitude. I have been in electronics... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 24, 2007I shop there only when necessary. You can find things online much cheaper, but when you need it "now" they are the only place around to get certain things I need quickly, and believe me, I have looked and looked for... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 30, 2007I should have read the other reviews before shopping there... Absolutely nothing positive to say. They are extremely rude (especially the woman) and not willing to assist at all on the post sale.. Would not... (more)

on Citysearch Feb 01, 2007My God! So i went there, and when I got in there I was happy to see that the older man was behind the counter. He had just rang someone out. I was standing there with 2 data sheets to show him what i was looking for (i don't... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 30, 2006I have been coming here for years for small hard to find items. The main problem is the lady up front is always upset and rude. A good example is when I called her up on the phone: Me - "Hello I am looking for a small... (more)
